One Hundred and Counting…

On the evening Cecil Collins was inducted into the Leesville High School Hall of Fame, Xavier Ford put on a show, scoring his 100th career touchdown… and more. Ford went on to score six touchdowns to lead the Wampus Cats to a 67-16 victory over Washington-Marion.

An Amazing Catch…

ASH and Ruston went down to the wire and the ever-reliable Tanner Townsend came through for the Trojans once again. On the ensuing drive, Alexandria would stop Ruston on a 4th and short to ice the game and win 40-36.

Hail Mary!

Carencro was down to its last snap down 21-20 to Sulphur…Freshman Carson Gurzi heaves it deep to Duffy who catches it off the tip! …26-21 Carencro!

A Quadruple Overtime Thriller!
